Don't Let It Show

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Don't Let It Show" is a 1977 single by The Alan Parsons Project, which came off the album I Robot. It begins with an electric piano, and then the singing begins. The drums and bass come in before the start of the second verse. After its verses and choruses, it goes into a keyboard riff coda, which goes on higher octaves as the drums pick up, and then it fades. The song has two segments. The first segment has Dave Townsend's vocal, and the second segment is the instrumental coda. The first half of the song is a slow moving ballad while the second half is more up-tempo. The interlude at the end of the song is accompanied by string and brass instruments.

Two years later, the song was covered by Pat Benatar for her In the Heat of the Night LP.
